Comedians born in Kitchener

Kitchener forms the heart of the Waterloo Region in southwestern Ontario, twinned with the neighbouring city of Waterloo. German settlers originally named it Berlin, and it was renamed during the First World War; its Oktoberfest ranks among the largest held outside Germany, and the area has grown into a technology hub.

With a large student population nearby, its venues and cultural spaces host touring stand-up and local comedy nights. D.J. Demers was born in Kitchener.
